What Am I To Dor

The symptoms of Biliousness are I'M
hsppily but too we'll known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom q
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and turred,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrbea or Constipation
may be a symptom or the two may
alternate. There are often Hemorr-
holds or even loss of blood. There may
be giddiness and ofteu headache and
acidity or fatulence and tenderness in
the pit of the stomach. To correct all
this if not effect cure try Green's
august Fl01Uer; it c1sts but trife and
thousands attest its efficacy.

Hosmer and Mckay Win in the
Double ScuII Race.

WORCESTER, Mass, July 1s.-The feature
Of the second day in the professional regat-
ia was the double scull race between Hamm
and Teemer, Hosmer and Mckay, and Ross
and Lee. The race was won by Hosmer and
Mckay in IS minutes 80 seconds. The
course was three miles with turn. A
smaller crowd than yesterday was present.
Hamm and Teemer, the fayorites, were
backed two to one against the field for first
place. The race started shortly before
o'clock. Hosmer and Mckay at once took
the lead, Ross and Lee second. Hamm and
Teemer got away at the same moment but to
everybody's surpriseIbrought up in the rear.
AT the 2Oth stroke Hamm and Teemer
stopped, Hamm having broken the blade of
an oar off short. After the race he said he
broke it at the third stroke but thought he
could win even with that. Hosmer and Nc
Kay were rowing furiously with 38 strokes
minute and put length OF clear water be-
tween themselves and Ross and Lee, who
were pulling only 36. The latter soon crossed
over into the Boston mems water and the
two crews rowed tandem for three quarters
of mile. Ross and Lee began 10 gain at
end of the mile and subsequently recrossed
to their own water and turned the mile and
half stake almost as soon as did Hes
mer and Mckay; time minutes, seconds.
Hosmer and Mckay squared away first and
came back with 80 strokes to the minute and
soon gained two boat lengths Ross and
Lee rowed only % strokes. When four
lengths behind at the end of the second
mile they spurted to 80 and half closed up
the gap. Hosmer and Mckay also spurted
and the stretch of clear water was soon as
long as before. Hosmer and Mckay finished
in Is minutes 20 seconds. Ross and Lee
stopped rowing 80 feet from the line, but
their boat floated over ten seconds later
Barring Hamm's misfortune the race was
interesting. The regatta closes tomorrow
with the final heat in the three mile single
scull race. Teemer, Hamm and Lee will
start. There will be six starters in the con-

Jacob Sharp Brought Into Court, but
Sentence Deferred.

NEW YORK, July 13.-The corridors of
the court room were filled this morning with
men eager to be present in the Court of
Oyer and Terminer when Briber Jacob
Sharp received sentence. All did not get in.
At 1885 there was most painful spectacle
witnessed by those gathered in court Jacob
Sharp, the aged prisoner, was fairly dragged
into court, his weak limbs refusing to sus
tain him. He was supported on the right by
his son-in-law, John II. Selmes, and on his
left by his coachman. He was red-eyed.
worn and haggard, and it was evident that
the reports concerning his illness were per-
fectly true. Immediately following him was
his wife, bearing up well under the trouble.
She was supported by the youthful grand
son, George Sharp. Sharp was led to a seat
before the bar, where he sank down in a
state of utter collapse and buried his face in
q handkerchief. To the surprise of every
one Judge Donohue was sitting on the bench
Instead of Judge Barrett The crier de-
clared the court open, and almost in the
same breath declared that it was adjourned
to tomorrow at u o'clock. 1t was then
learned that Judge Barrett was i'll at his
home and unable to appear in court to SEN
tence Sharp. The illness of Judge Barrett
had consequently obliged postpOnement of
the sentencing OF the convicted bribe giver.
Accompanied by those who had been with
him on his way to the court, Sharp was
escorted back to the carriage in waiting out
side the building and driven back to Ludlow
street Jail. The people surged forward to
catch glimpse of Mr.. Sharp and gave the
officers about all they could do to keen the

Inthe course Of his testimony General

land road:
CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY Co.,
Montreal, June 28th, 1887.
~ 5. Mullen. Esq, Gen. sapt Boston
L.'ceU Railroad;
DEAR Sn.. learn that some importar
is attached to the4report Of some imaginat
individual that has Dces1 goiI the rounds
the press about the contemplated control
the Boston IL Lowell and Boston u Nah
railroads by the Canadiaf-z.aeiic Railrof
Co. IL you should think II w0rth while I
any reason 70 contradict the report, II N
be Of use to know that the Canadians Pae
Co. has no power whatever TO engage in~1e
such enterprise outside Of Canada. and In
addition 1t being beyond its power. il Is the
fixed policy OF the Company to eonfine its
operations exclusively % the Canadian side
OF the International boundary. Our having
engaged in the building Of the "Short Line"
across Maine may have given the public a
contrary impression, but that has been car
RED out by the Company at the instance Of
the Canadian Government and assisted by a
government subsidy and ID Is really neces-
sary part Of the Canadian system. Our re-
lations with the Canadian Government
would absolutely prevent our acquiring the
control directly or indirectly OF any lines
leading to the seaports of the United States.
Our only desire Is TO cultivate the most ami
cable business relations with the New Eng
land lines so as TO secure free interchange
Of traffic. There can be no doubt that the
whole OF New England would be benefited
by such an interchange of traffic, as the re-
suit to be derived from the free competition
OF such an extensive line as the Canadian
Pacific must be apparent to the most super
fetal observer. Yours truly,
w. @. VAN HORNE,
Vice President.
After this letter had been read the Concord
people brought out the point that bill had
lately been introduced into tine Canadian
Parliament to allow the Canadian Pacific
Railway to lease lines anywhere In Canada
or out, and that this bill had failed only eight
votes. The fact was also brought out that
the Canadian Pacific and Boston Il Lowell
together control the Southeastern which
reaches down to Newport. The Canadian
Pacific holds 81, 5000 Of its stock and the
Boston II Lowell $4,000. Together they
hold S1,790,0O0 out Of two million Of its
bonds. This interest Of the Lowell will go
to the Boston & Maine Of course when the
union Of the two Is complete.

Senator culIom or Political Matters.

CHICAGO. July 13.--A local paper says
Senator Cuilom, who is in the city on bnsi-
ness, refused to talk politics under any guise
whatever. He was of the opinion, however,
that the people began to understand his In
ter-State Commerce bill the better opinion
they would have of it. He said the farmers
in Illinois had already found out that they
could get two or three cents bushel more
for their wheat than they could under the
old law, and that was pretty good evidence
that the bill was a good one for them. The
Senator did not expect an extra session Of
Congress, but thought it would be a great
deal better if the Congress would meet about
October and so be able to get through earlier
in the year, particularly during a Presiden-
tlal campaign year. He did not think the
fears of a financial panic need call Congress
together, and II It did the chances are that
more harm than good accomplished.
